Build a Solution to Fit your Process

We provide a complete and unique footwear CADCAM solution from scanning the last to designing footwear and manufacturing the shoe components ready for production. Digital data can be output for turning lasts, cutting the sample or graded upper components and machining moulds for sole units.

Last Engineering

LastMaker, LastMaker Pro

LastMaker

The process of producing or modifying a last is extremely simple. Even inexperienced users can work with confidence after only a few hours of training. LastMaker produces last models much faster than is possible by hand, allowing you to get the digital data to your last manufacturer quicker, ensuring a faster turnaround time.

All modifications to the last are based on accurate measurements of the foot. Model size or graded last data can be output for on-site machining, or sent to your last manufacturer digitally. Scanned foot data imported as a template can be used to modify existing conventional or fashion lasts. The data can be ouput for machining a custom-made pair of lasts.

LastMaker Pro

LastMaker Pro has the same last modification functionality as LastMaker, but also includes PowerSHAPE Pro in the product bundle.

LastMaker Pro is the standard LastMaker product bundled together with Delcam PowerSHAPE Pro. This product combination provides you with all the digital last modification functionality of LastMaker, plus the advanced tools of the PowerSHAPE Pro tribrid (surface, triangle and faceted triangle) modelling kernel, including morphing, texture wrapping and wire frame editing with intelligent cursor, so there are no limits to what can be achieved.

ShoeMaker Pro

Delcam CRISPIN ShoeMaker Pro is the easy to use and learn solution for concept footwear design and sole/mould engineering. ShoeMaker Pro incorporates the Delcam PowerSHAPE Pro tribrid modelling kernel, with advanced 3D engineering functionality for producing accessories, sole units, heels and moulds, plus functionality for morphing, texture wrapping and EVA grading. ShoeMaker Pro is the only 3D CAD solution that integrates the last upper and sole in the same single environment. ShoeMaker Pro replaces Delcam CRISPIN ShoeDesign and SoleEngineer as the product of choice for 3D concept footwear design and sole unit engineering

SoleEngineer

SoleEngineer is a powerful yet easy to use 3D modelling solution for creating sole units and moulds very rapidly, allowing you to get the finished sole or set of graded soles to the manufacturer faster. SoleEngineer incorporates the Delcam PowerSHAPE Pro tribrid modelling kernel with advanced 3D engineering tools for 3D modelling, morphing, texture wrapping and EVA grading, ensuring your sole unit and mould design is accurate and meets the required tolerance. Working with an accurate 3D model throughout ensures that the final sole unit exactly matches the original last and design features. 3D sole moulds can be machined directly using Delcam PowerMILL, a powerful CAM solution that can interface to any single or multi-axis milling machine. SoleEngineer is fully integrated with ShoeMaker Pro but also available as a separately licensed product.

ShoeMaker-e

ShoeMaker-e is an entry level 3D concept footwear design solution and model viewing tool. 3D design models can be easily created and saved in the ShoeMaker-e file format (.eshoe) which can only be opened by another ShoeMaker-e application. ShoeMaker-e includes most of the features found in the main ShoeMaker design product, including material textures, accessory libraries, basic sole design. Completed ShoeMaker-e models (.eshoe) can be exported by purchasing an export voucher (available online). Export options include ShoeMaker and ShoeMaker Pro (.shoe), rapid prototyping (STL), manufacturing (IGES, DXF) and other third party software packages. ShoeMaker-e runs without a dongle or license and is free to download and install.

ShoeMaker Viewer

ShoeMaker Viewer is specifically developed for viewing 3D footwear design models (.shoe) and design variants created in ShoeMaker or ShoeMaker Pro. ShoeMaker Viewer is an ideal tool for communicating with your colleagues, customers or factories around the world with product design and manufacturing projects.

ShoeStyle

ShoeStyle is an easy to use solution for drawing, sketching and editing 3D style lines. ShoeStyle also features a last import wizard, stencil or AI curve wrapping, plus 2D last forme and style line flattening. ShoeStyle is an ideal tool for ensuring the lines of the design model are aesthetically correct before flattening for advanced pattern engineering and manufacture. ShoeStyle is bundled free with Engineer Pro, but also available as a standalone product.

ShoeCost

Simple-to-use, and easy to learn, ShoeCost produces a quick accurate costing for your footwear sample and production footwear. Parallelogram, SLM and Collective leather material assessments with user defined coefficients provide the cost or an average skin size, whilst synthetic material layouts provide actual costs for sheet and roll material usage. Components can also be added to provide a detailed Bill of Materials. Labour and Overhead costs can also be added to produce a total footwear costing.

TechPac

TechPac is an extermely easy to use documentation solution for producing Technical Packages for footwear manufacturing operations and assembly sequences. A series of diagrams can be created to provide a pre-lasting assembly guideline for the factory operator.

Each diagram can provide technical detailing about the upper component, the type of machine to use and the operation sequence using tables, text and images. Technical legends can also be inserted to describe the details of a skiving or closing operation. HTML or PDF reports can be produced for the complete technical packge, by department or individual operation. There is also additional functionality to assess and calculate the visible material areas of a shoe.

PatternCut

PatternCut is an extremely simple to use nesting and cutting solution that can produce your sample or graded production patterns from paper, card or plastic. The efficient nesting software helps save material costs especially when cutting or routing plastics or pattern board for producing markers or brass bound patterns. PatternCut interfaces to many types of cutting table, so your older cutting hardware could be utilised.

KnifeCut

KnifeCut is an easy to use nesting solution used solely with our Prospector series Projection Cutting Systems to produce upper components from leather and synthetic materials. CRISPIN Knifecut provides the functionality to manually nest upper component pieces directly onto the leather skin through a projection system. The cut components can be used for both sample or production footwear.

Our hardware solutions provide the means to input and output data into and out of our footwear CAD products.

The input of standards for a stand-alone 2D pattern development (Delcam CRISPIN Engineer Pro) or costing (Delcam CRISPIN ShoeCost) is achieved using a digitising tablet which are available in A3 and A2 sizes

The scanning of a foot to produce custom-fit lasts is achieved using a 3D laser foot scanner, that can produce scan data of the foot and up the leg to a height of 18cm. Wooden design lasts or Polyethlene production lasts* can also be scanned for importing into CRISPIN LastMaker for last engineering, CRISPIN ShoeMaker for 3D footwear design, visualisation and flattening, or CRISPIN ShoeMaker Pro for 3D concept footwear design, modelling and sole unt engineering.

Last, sole and heel scanning can also be achieved using a stand-alone 3D laser scanner. The scan data can be imported into CRISPIN ShoeMaker and used directly in the designing process.

Lasts can also be digitised using a MicroScribe 3D Digitiser to produce a digital 3D design last for use in CRISPIN ShoeMaker for 3D footwear design, visualisation and flattening.

The output of pattern parts can be achieved using one of several cutting table solutions. The size and specification of cutting table and tool head can vary according to your requrements.

We can provide cutting tables for producing pattern parts from paper or pattern card using a knife and pen tool head, from pattern board or pastic using a router tool, or from leather and other footwear materials using a projection nesting a cutting system (CRISPIN Prospector) with an oscillating knife, pen and multi-punch tool head.

** It may be necessary to fill tack holes or gaps in the last and paint or spray the last surface white to aid the scanning process.
